received on PC serial communications ports to text files. It includes the
following features and options:
- Capture from up to 30 serial COM ports simultaneously, with suitable
hardware.
- Captured data is optionally shown in scrolling windows, and may be
copied to be clipboard if required.
- Capture text files may be in separate directories for each capture port
and new files may be created daily (at a specified time), weekly (Monday),
monthly, hourly, every few minutes, after an inactivity period, when a new
page character is received, or a fixed file name may be used.
- Capture text file name are automatically generated, with a file name
format customised with date and time in various ways, numeric or alphabetic.
- Various options to safeguard captured data, closing the log after each
line to force it to write to disk, or after an inactivity period or
periodically every few seconds or minutes.
- A separate log file is maintained showing when capture starts and stops
and other ComCap events.
- A sound file may be played when each new line of data is captured (with
a minimum gap between sounds, in case of frequent data).
- Raw data may be captured unchanged from the COM port, or the data may
be cleaned up with non-printing characters removed and trailing spaces
removed.
- A time stamp may be added to start of each captured line in a
customisable format, typically for alarm type applications.
